    Tone Database Search



    In the query below, you can enter any location name in English or Chinese (簡體/繁體/整體/拼音), province name, a language or dialect name, or any tone contour for that matter (55, 51, 24, 213, 214, etc.) If you end up with a rather large search result, try putting the two intersecting terms you would like and use a match all search method (but you won't be able to define the column in this case). There are some sample search tips below.
    So far, 430 entries

    Search Term (remove , and '):
    Search Method:
    Search Column :
    Column Identifier:
    1 = Index5 = 陰平 1A
    2 = Locale6 = 陽平 1B
    3 = Province7 = 陰上 2A
    4 = Lang/Dialect8 = 陽上 2B
    13 = Notes9 = 陰去 3A
    14 = Source10 = 陽去 3B
    11 = 陰入 4A

    Search Tips

    Dialect / Topolect Name Match
    Remove apostrophes from the name. Search using Chinese characters for narrower results. Using pinyin without tone marks may return too many results.

    Language and Province
    Try: Anhui Hui (match all)

    Tone Contour and Language
    Try: Hui 24 (match all)

    Tone Contour, Language, Province
    Try: 51 anhui mandarin (match all)

    Any and all occurrences of two tone contours
    Try: 51 24 (match any)

    Only Wu dialects that have all three tone contours
    Try: 51 55 35 wu (match all)

    Only dialects with 51 tone in 陰去 category
    Try: 51 (perfect match, column9)

    For example, for all dialects with 51 tone in Anhui province and belonging to Mandarin, type: anhui 51 mandarin, then choose "Match All". If you are looking for 51 in a particular tone, you will still have to manually pick out from these results.
